...room full of phenomenally annoying 18-year-olds.Some have come to terms with this fact and are extremely jolly in consequence. Others need to jealously blog about how much they hated you, your papers, and your $500,000 book deal. It really depends.But more importantly, TFs, in general, have a very distinct and quirky sense of fashion, which differentiates them from the undergraduate population. Though a gap of merely five to seven years separates the nubile undergraduate from the average woebegone TF, it is very hard to mistake one for the other.Thus, for interested parties, I have codified TF fashion, in order...
...another example of how every girl had to be one or the other: Pretty or smart.” But Viswanathan wrote, “Yet another example of how every girl had to be one or the other: smart or pretty.” Notice the subtle, yet distinct differences between the two. By de-capitalizing “pretty” and placing it after “smart” the entire passage is transformed. After all, if you are going to appropriate language, you should at least improve it.

...says the centers’ waiting lists are so long that most professors’ children cannot gain admission.According to the Report of the Task Force on Women Faculty published in May 2005, the “wait list in Cambridge and Allston could be between 150 and 300 distinct names/children.”More current and more specific statistics concerning these waiting lists, however, were unable to be provided by the individual child care centers, Work/Family Specialist Sarah Bennett-Astesano at the Office of Work/Life Resources, or Task Force Chair and Senior Vice Provost for Faculty Development and Diversity...

This distinction is interesting in and of itself, without the numbers attached to it. Football, basketball, and ice hockey are considered high profile men’s sports, while there do not seem to be any sports that are considered high profile for women. Clearly, if there is a need to separate the male sports...
...lenient standards, which recognize groups that discriminate on the basis of religion. (However, the CCL, which is comprised primarily of College administrators as well as three appointed undergraduates, does not recognize student groups that discriminate on the basis of many other factors, including race.) The UC and CCL have distinct purposes with respect to student groups. The CCL’s role is to grant to groups basic recognition, which effectively means access to campus space and use of the Harvard name. The UC’s role, on the other hand, is to allocate students’ money, which...
